The Princess Factor

Some girls have this air about them which says "I'm better than you are". Actually, it's not just an air. It's a whole attitude and demeanour. I call this the Princess factor. I met this girl the other day who was SOOO like that- it was just the way she spoke, and what she said and her whole general attitude and outlook. E.g. we were discussing where I lived and I said "Oh, I live at X but no one knows where that is, so I generally say near Y" to which she said "Is that even a suburb?!?!?" Like I'm used to that reaction, but coming from her it was so demeaning and belittling.

Another reason why I am so against these people is because they tend to zero in on me. Well, I feel zeroed in on! If you haven't noticed, I don't take myself too seriously, and I pay myself out all the time. So, if I was sharing a moment of my own stupidity with a normal someone, they would probably laugh. But sharing a moment of stupidity with one with a high Princess factor rating results in them looking witheringly at you with an expression of "God. Why do I even bother??" and results in me thinking "Oh crap, maybe I am that stupid!" for a brief moment, rapidly replaced by "Ergh! This person really has a broom up their bum!".

Thankfully, most of the people I've met and associated with are down to earth and low on the Princess factor. But those few I've met reaaaaally stick out to me. Yuck!
